[PATCH] Zip file names should match the latest version of their contents, not of the whole repository

[eblot]

The original ticket appears as ​th:ticket:558.

I don't know which solution is the best to implement such a feature (renaming feature as Alec suggested, ...), but the current implemention is a real issue on multi-project host servers such as TracHacks.

This patch works, and I've enabled it on TracHacks:

zip_rev.patch sets the rev number based on history instead of the latest rev of the repository.

Not for 0.11.

Btw, please do not update the ticket description when you add a patch. Use [PATCH] when submitting a new ticket only, thanks.

+1 on the idea. I'll put it on my todo.

See also #5119.

If you are once at the file names:

It would also be nice to be able to specify part of the file name. Finding files named trunk-r123.zip on my disk would drive me crazy ;) I think of a new parameter like "basename", so adding "&basename=something" would result in something-trunk-r123.zip then in the given example.

Next step would be to allow a "default basename" to be defined in your trac.ini, so the pages would render it this way by default.

Moved together with #5119.
